Noh Place Poetry Anthology

Noh Place Poetry Anthology

Bill O'Connell
0/5 ( ratings)
In an effort to avoid nostalgia and an aggrandizement of anyone’s “glory days,” while narrowing the selection of poets, we solicited work with the understanding that the poems may have been written before, during, or after the poets’ participation in the Noh Place Poetry Series. Thus, the scope of this anthology spans decades, rather than presenting a “freeze frame” on time. Each poet chose their own work for inclusion, and in the same spirit, wrote their own biographical statements, with the idea that such an approach would illustrate the variety of voices and experiences that were an essential component of Noh Place and its philosophy. We believe that this collection of poems, modified from its original, more inclusive plan, contains aesthetic value, poetic stylings, and/or sociopolitical relevance, and indeed, continues to stand on its own merits. The participating seventeen poets in the anthology were chosen for their local, regional, and/or national importance, and for their representation of the many styles and voices that exemplified the Noh Place Poetry Series. Five of the selected poets have passed away. We asked Noh Place founding member Stephen Campiglio to select their poems and write their biographical statements. We regret that all of the poets who read for the Series over the years could not be included. This exclusion does not reflect any editorial bias or taste.
